Help Broken volume flex cable. How to fix?

Newbie
So I did the unthinkable, I broke something a phone not soon after I got it. While I was changing the housing for the GNex, I forgot to remove the SIM card and it jammed the volume flex cable, and it ended up being severed.

I just ordered replacements parts on http://www.parts4repair.com/samsung-gala..., but I tried to find any help or information on how to reattach a new flex cable, however there seems to be no information.

So my question is, how should I proceed to re-solder a new volume flex cable? I have some experience but I have never done something so "risky"... Am I better off finding a repair shop?

Thanks,
